Commercial
Possums can be a nuisance in commercial settings, especially if they gain access to buildings, warehouses, or other structures. They may cause damage by gnawing on wood, wires, or insulation, and they can also leave behind droppings and create odours.
Regular inspections may be necessary to address possum-related issues in commercial properties to identify signs of possum activity, such as droppings, chewed materials, or nests. Once identified, appropriate measures can be taken to deter possums from entering or nesting in the commercial premises. This may include sealing entry points, removing food sources, or implementing humane exclusion methods.
- Possums Treatment
- Frightening devices
Use sound or light-based devices designed to startle possums and deter them from staying in the area. These devices can be particularly useful in outdoor spaces or gardens.
- Natural deterrents
Consider using natural substances like chili pepper, garlic, or strong-smelling herbs to create barriers or repellents that possums find unpleasant.
- Fencing
Install tall, sturdy fences around gardens or other vulnerable areas to prevent possums from accessing plants or property. Ensure that the fencing extends below ground level to prevent digging.
- Possums Control
Controlling possums can be achieved through various methods, including:
- Exclusion: Seal off any potential entry points to buildings or structures using materials such as wire mesh, wood, or metal flashing to prevent possums from gaining access.
- Trimming vegetation: Possums often use overhanging branches or dense vegetation as pathways to access buildings. Trimming trees and bushes near structures can discourage possums from reaching them.
- Secure garbage bins: Ensure that garbage bins are tightly sealed to prevent possums from accessing food sources. Use bins with secure lids and consider storing them in enclosed areas if possible.
- Removal of food sources: Limit access to food by removing fallen fruits, securing pet food, and keeping outdoor eating areas clean.
- Repellents: Utilize commercial or homemade repellents such as ammonia-soaked rags, predator urine, or motion-activated deterrent devices to discourage possums from frequenting the area.
- Trapping: Live trapping can be an effective method for controlling possum populations. Once captured, possums should be relocated to suitable habitat areas far away from the property.
- Professional assistance: In severe infestations or situations where DIY methods are ineffective, consider seeking assistance from pest control professionals who specialize in wildlife management.
